Oncology Massage Therapy
is a gentle therapeutic touch that supports patients with cancer
Research shows that Oncology Massage Therapy can reduce the side effects from conventional treatment of cancer and improve the quality of life for someone undergoing cancer treatment or with a history of cancer. Patients reported that even after a single Oncology Massage session they experienced the following:
• Reduced pain
• Reduced fatigue
• Reduced nausea
• Reduced swelling
• Reduced depressive symptoms (such as anxiety)
• Showed improvement in shortness of breath & dry mouth
• Improvement in overall wellbeing and sleep
It is important to understand that an Oncology Massage Therapy is completely different from traditional forms of massage. Oncology Massage therapists are specifically trained in cancer care, and take into account elevated levels of stress and pain. A safe massage plan generally revolves around the side effects (both short-and long-term) of chemotherapy, radiation and surgery, as well as the preferences and needs of the person.
